Time: 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM
Location: FBC of Aledo
Everything's Coming Up PinkBenefiting ~ Tammy Kubosh Boutwell, a lifetime resident of Aledo, was recently diagnosed with Grade 3 Stage 4 Breast Cancer. Tammy's cancer has spread throughout her body and is affecting her all the way from her skull to her left femur. Tammy is currently undergoing chemotherapy once a week in preparation for surgery. As a wife and mother, Tammy put her family first and herself last. Thinking an emergency might arise, she put off routine gynecological exams, mammograms, and sonograms. She was unaware of programs that could help off-set the costs of routine and necessary doctors visits. Through her battle with cancer, Tammy has become educated about various programs and hopes the information at this fundraiser will help make others aware of available resources in Parker and Tarrant Counties.
